Yet, there are a few facts revolving around the enigmatic concept of laser hair removal!

Here, let us gather some insights on the subject and get over all the confusions to take advantage of this incredible gift made available to all of us.

Facts About The Laser Hair Removal Treatment:

• Laser hair reduction treatment involves obliterating the hair follicles in the skin area being treated, to reduce or stop the hair growth.
• It is used to remove unwanted hair from back, bikini area, chest, face, upper lip, eyebrows, chin, neck, and shoulders.
• Qualified and expert dermatologists work on skin by passing highly concentrated light beams (laser) into the hair follicles that need to be removed. The pigment present in the skin absorbs that light and the hair follicles are destroyed.
• As per the suitability on different types of skin and hair three different wavelengths can be used for laser hair reduction treatments, namely: 810 nm (Diode), 755 nm (Alexandrite), 1064 nm (Nd:YAG)
• These laser used are harmless and can be used for most parts of the body covered with skin.
• Laser hair removal is not completed in one session. You may require a few sessions (6-8) to get rid of hair completely. This is because the therapy works on the continuous growth of hair and keeps reducing it in multiple sessions.
• After the sessions are over, the unwanted hair take several months to come back. But, if and when they do, they are much lesser and finer than the previous growth. Most people see permanent hair loss after 6-8 sessions, taken on an average gap of 5-6 weeks.
• You can repeat the treatment, after you see re-growth, without any apprehensions in mind.
• Small areas such as upper-lips or eyebrows can be treated in less than a minute’s sitting, while larger areas such as legs and back can take approximately an hour of a session.
• You must not indulge in the activities like plucking, waxing or threading of the areas that you are planning to get treated, at least six weeks prior to the treatment. Laser beams target the roots of the hair, which must be present while the treatment is being done. Shaving is advisable for this period.
• Avoid moving out in sun and exposing the area to direct sunrays, six weeks prior to the treatment. Sun rays will lessen your chances of getting an effective session and augment the probability of complications.
• The laser used for the treatment is adjusted as per the color, thickness and location of hair. This is important because different areas of skin and different types of hair require the accurate concentration of laser and the technique accordingly.
• While the treatment is on, you and the dermatologist working on your skin must wear the eye-protection gear to protect eyes from the potential laser harm.
• Before starting the treatment, the outer layer of skin is protected with a cooling gel. This also helps the laser to penetrate better.
• Once the procedure is complete, ice-packs are applied to prevent skin inflammation.
• The treated skin area may appear and feel sunburned for next 1-2 days. It is safe to use sun protection lotion and water based moisturizers to ease the discomfort.
• In case the face was treated, you can wear make-up next day on, only if the skin is not blistered and overtly red.
• Blond, red or grey hair, or darker skin may need more than usual sessions as the effect of laser beam on them will be a little lesser than usual. Dark hair on lighter skin show easy and early results.

Equipped with these facts, now you are all set to get your laser hair reduction treatment and attain that flawless, beautiful skin that you always wanted. But, make sure to thoroughly check the credentials of the clinic and the doctors performing the treatment.
